Abstract
A sub connector includes a sub housing, a first terminal fixed in the sub housing, and a shielding shell fixed to the sub housing and at least partially enclosing the first terminal. The sub connector is detachably inserted into a mother housing to form a connector with the mother housing. The sub connector has a sub connecting end for electrically connecting with an electrical component and a sub mating end for electrically mating with a mating connector.
